FAQs for Lea Bridge

What’s the nearest station to Lea Bridge for guests?

Clapton station, about 0.5 miles west of the centre.

Can you cook in Millfields Park?

Only if the landowner, usually the council, allows it. Ask them first, and we will send any information they need.

Is halal food available?

Yes. We use halal chicken and leave out pork and alcohol, in its own pan.

What about pudding?

Yes. Spanish desserts such as churros or crema catalana.

What paperwork do you have?

Let us know what’s required, and we’ll send what you need.

How long do you need on site?

It depends on the menu and numbers. We will agree arrival, cooking and serving times with you.

Do you do starters?

Yes, it’s the classic pairing. Tapas first, paella to follow.

When should we book?

Early, particularly for summer Saturdays. Ask about your date even if it’s soon.

Paella compared with other options

Food trucks serve one order at a time, which slows a big team down. Paella is served fast from the pan. Live paella pricing depends on the event. A simple paella lunch costs less than a wedding with canapés, three paellas and waiting staff. Your quote spells it all out.

Planning the cooking area

Most outdoor spaces and many venues work for live paella, but there are a few things to check:

  • Somewhere close to park and unload
  • Good ventilation: outdoors, or an open-sided cover
  • Agreement from the venue or landowner to cook on site

As a London location, Lea Bridge is inside the Ultra Low Emission Zone, and parking takes planning: let us know about permits, bays or off-street parking.

If you are unsure, send a photo of the space and we will say what we think.

Can I cook paella for a crowd myself?

Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.

For a small group, cooking yourself can work well. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, and keeps vegetarian and allergy-safe pans separate.

Diets, allergies and planning

Paella is one of the easiest dishes for mixed diets, because each paella is cooked in its own pan. A few tips:

  • Ask what the venue requires from caterers
  • Check the building or venue allows live cooking
  • Share the timings for food
  • Share diet numbers and allergies in writing

We keep the cooking area tidy and contained, and clear it away afterwards.

Spanish desserts or churros for a sweet finish.

What happens on the day

We cook over gas burners in wide, shallow pans. We need a level, ventilated spot, and we agree where that is before the day. After-work summer parties in Lea Bridge have daylight until about 9:20pm in late June and 7:05pm in late September; winter events, dark by about 3:55pm, need lit cooking and serving areas.

  1. We check the date and venue.
  2. You choose paellas, canapés and extras.
  3. We provide the paperwork.
  4. Your team watches the paella cook.
  5. It is served quickly, then we pack down.

Before we arrive

  • Get the venue’s permission for cooking
  • Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely
  • Name one person we can ask on the day
